Indicator
Perhaps the single most revealing performance indicator of the state of Guyana’s sugar industry is to be found in its annual production figures. For this purpose, I have updated a table that I had previously used in columns dealing with sugar and offer it below in the form of a long-term series of Guyana’s annual sugar output covering five decades, from 1961 to 2011. To make the table concise, I present the data on the basis of 3-year averages.
